Corporate Social Responsibility

“Connecting to nature” can involve all the physical senses: why not take off your shoes and get your feet (and hands) dirty; don’t just look at the beautiful lake, jump in! Take a hike at night and rely on your ears and nose to experience nature!
In the age of asphalt and smartphones and among the distractions of modern life, connections with nature can be fleeting. But World Environment Day can make clearer than ever that we need harmony between humanity and nature so that both are able to thrive.
KP Group has paved deep in-roads in Renewable Energy World through development of utility scale projects of Wind & Solar. KP Energy (Group’s wind vertical), a prominent wind farm developer in India develops wind projects at unutilised, barren and mostly waste lands on coastal belts or hillocks which itself is the biggest service towards balance of ecosystem. Group’s Solar vertical Solarism has virtually connected last mile person to invest and proved- “Solar is Money”. Group’s initiatives are better explained by its belief system of Sustainable Development principles and Plantation promotions.

Sustainable Development: Adjust with Environment instead of expecting Environment to Adjust!
Development seems today to be a synonym to reckless depletion of natural resources, smoky cities, concrete jungles, throbbing industries, busy highways, lavish living comforts – all has come at the cost of losing nature driven ecosystem. We have taken the driver’s seat expecting rest of ecosystem to adjust according to us!
Every unit of power generated by Wind /Solar will save about 1000 litres of water being used by conventional energy producers, will save about 1 kg of carbon-di-oxide generated in burning hydrocarbons, will haul out kinetic energy from winds harnessing into electricity and keep improving employment and prosperity.

KP Energy strongly believes in preservation of natural resources and its holistic use in benefit of mankind without disturbing nature driven ecosystem. Every design, plan & its implementation at KP Energy wind farms sites dovetails utmost care for flora & fauna in vicinity. For e.g. Matalpar Site at Bhavnagar is live example of co-existence of Asiatic Lions and wind mills, a nature friendly exercise. While developing site, company took due care of creating small water ponds and suitable rest area likings of Lions. It also went further in donating an exclusive Ambulance for Lions to local forest department to take care of their injuries & health in-time. The pathways to hill-top locations are often used by all grazing animals comfortably and have enhanced their grazing area as well as free movements.

Engineering of overhead lines at KP Energy is a special feature. It has implemented a unique bird friendly design to protect all kinds of birds, including long tailed like peacocks and large flocks of flamingo from electrocution. Site Stores & even guest houses too are powered by solar modules! Minute care is taken even to the extent of checking, controlling and regulating noise & smoke emissions of small generators used for construction & execution at Sites. This and many more because, Environment Care is our second nature!

Plantation Enmasse: Lets’ make this world, a better place to live!
Planting one tree means planting a whole living system. Our dedicated tree plantation program works toward communicating this very idea to masses.
We are aware of the much talked about global warming and climate change which have become a worldwide concern. As we look around, we witness our hillocks, rivers and streams slowly losing its greenery and getting dried up. Is this not a concern for us? We have a huge challenge ahead and this is the right time, if not late, to usher in this change
One of the largest campaigns for plantation was initiated by KP Energy team at Matalpar and Karmadia villages of Bhavnagar, where at a time; about 10,000 saplings were planted by school students of all nearby villages (approximately 3500 in numbers) along with villagers, staff, workers, associated contractors and activists of green revolution in the vicinity.
Afforestation is not only the duty of government but it should become a mass movement. Hence, the Company has set the target of planting and growing 1,00,000 trees by 2022. And it has, so far planted 17,600 saplings successfully in the barren waste lands mostly on road sides. It spends substantial fund in regular watering and tendering of these plants too to ensure that plantation is not limited to sowing alone but translates into actual afforestation.
So let’s get connect to nature and contribute to bloom and flourish greener tomorrow and healthier nation! Lets’ all take care of Environment like our parents as our basic duty rather than corporate attire. Lets’ make this world, a better place to live, you me and all!
